Bamboo Raft Tour of Wuyishan

Although not strictly tea related, the bamboo raft tour is an excellent adventure. The tour is a ride down the 9 bend river which goes through the Zhengyan tea area. Groups of 6 people sit and enjoy the ride while the guides poll the raft down the river. Along the river you get a sense for the history and an understanding for the unique conditions that make Wuyishan a great area for tea.

Six guests enjoy the views while two guides direct the raft.Many interesting places along the river. It would be nice to explore.We stopped on a sand bar to take some photos.

ABOUT OLD WAYS TEA

I'm from Wuyishan, China and live in the USA. I sell tea from my family's farms. You won't find tea from all over China here, only tea from the Wuyi mountains, since that is what I know best. I hope you enjoy it. Feel free to get in touch! Email me at mengfei@oldwaystea.com
